There are so few B Rides listed on the weekends. Why are the ones submitted bejng approved just minutes before the ride is to start?

I doubt any of these books mentioned that I climbed Mont Ventoux 3 times
Incidentally, next to the bike articles list, there is an interesting piece "In Sardinia" in which I have cycled on 5 or 6 trips and plan to do a walking trip with Backroads this coming September

All,
There's a Repair Cafe at the end of June up in Irvington, and they're looking for volunteers who can help fix bikes (along with general repair skills). The event runs Sunday, June 25th from 1-4pm at the Irvington Public LIbrary (12 Astor St) - right by the Metro-North Station.
If you're interested you can reach out to [email protected] - event info can be found here.

Berkshires - Barrington Brewery Saturday night
I'm a little late in planning --
I'm wondering if there are any unused tickets (or tickets available) for two people for Saturday night's dinner.
I'll call the restaurant a little later and see about reservations, but just checking in advance of that.
Thanks,
Getting to Hoboken NJT Terminal from the NW BX
What would be the best way to get from the NW Bronx to the Hoboken NJT Terminal? I am debating whether to ride or just grab Path or the Ferry.
RWGPS sends me through Edgewater, Weehawken, etc. using River Road, Port Imperial Blvd, the bike path along the water front, Hudson St, to 1st St and then over to the water front again.
Shouldn't I just stay on the waterfront walkway all the way to the terminal?
I'm trying to minimize the number of times I will need to carry my bike up/down stairs while I have a backpack with clothing for a weekend away.
I'm not going this weekend, I'm figuring out my plans for some time in June/July.
NYCC Ride Notification Emails - Delay?
Why did I get an email on ride notifications for these rides about an hour ago (it's currently 5/22 and about 6pm)? These rides occured in the past, and no surprise, there weren't any participants?
